Priest Ranch embodies the essence of Napa Valley, from the trailblazing mindset of its establishing pioneers to today’s spirit of farming excellence. Inspired by adventurous settlers like Joshua James Priest and others who have helped shape the Napa Valley we call home, Priest Ranch is dedicated to producing estate-farmed wines of uncommon quality and character.

Integrity and excellence begin at the source.

Honoring their Napa Valley heritage by cultivating wines with distinctive profiles that expressly link them to their estate source, Priest Ranch is committed to sharing a legacy that encompasses agricultural integrity, a forward-thinking mindset and an unswerving commitment to quality at the very highest level. They believe that all wines must stem from the land itself. Winemaker and viticulturist, Craig Becker, draws on rich, diverse vineyard sources that feature a variety of elevations, exposures, soils and microclimates. With knowledge borne of deep experience, Craig takes a minimalist approach to winemaking, encouraging the highest expression of personality, intensity and distinction in each variety produced.

The estate is located in the mountains 12 miles east of the town of Rutherford in the Napa Valley, and is comprised of 129 acres of sustainably farmed vineyards with elevations spanning 800 feet on the valley floor to 2,400 feet at the mountain ridge. The land is planted to an incredibly diverse selection of over 15 varieties.
